+Fixes needed before 217:
+
+* verify that both resolved and timesyncd work OK without networkd around
+
Bugfixes:
-* Re-enable "fsck -l" when it is ready:
- https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79576#c5
* Should systemctl status \* work on all unit types, not just .service?
* properly handle .mount unit state tracking when two mount points are stacked one on top of another on the exact same mount point.
-External:
-* Fedora: when installing fedora with yum --installroot /var/run is a directory, not a symlink
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975864
+* ExecStart with unicode characters fails in strv_split_quoted:
+
+ [Service]
+ Environment=ONE='one' "TWO='two two' too" THREE=
+ ExecStart=/bin/python3 -c 'import sys;print(sys.argv)' $ONE $TWO $THREE
+* MEMORY return code is overloaded for syntax errors in the commandline.
+ str_split_quoted() should return a real return code, so spawn_child can
+ report the failure properly.
+
+External:
* Fedora: add an rpmlint check that verifies that all unit files in the RPM are listed in %systemd_post macros.
* Fedora: post FPC ticket to move add %tmpfiles_create to the packaging guidelines
* Fedora: remove /etc/resolv.conf tmpfiles hack
+* wiki: update journal format documentation for lz4 additions
+
+* When lz4 gets an API for lz4 command output, make use of it to
+ compress coredumps in a way compatible with /usr/bin/lz4.
+
Features:
-* libsystemd-network:
- - I don't think there should be a client side object for dhcp
- releases (probably not even a directory in /run for it)
- - the order between ipv6 and ipv4 dns servers probably matters,
- hence the current DNS apis won't suffice
+* journald: allow per-priority and per-service retention times when rotating/vacuuming
+
+* introduce systemd-timesync-wait.service or so to sync on an NTP fix?
+
+* systemd --user should issue sd_notify() upon reaching basic.target, not on becoming idle
+
+* configure.ac pretends dbus was optional but actually hardcodes use of dbus' pkg-config file to determine various dbus dirs such as policy and activation dirs
+
+* consider showing the unit names during boot up in the status output, not just the unit descriptions
+
+* dhcp: do we allow configuring dhcp routes on interfaces that are not the one we got the dhcp info from?
+
+* maybe allow timer units with an empty Units= setting, so that they
+ can be used for resuming the system but nothing else.
+
+* what to do about udev db binary stability for apps?
+
+* maybe provide an API to allow migration of foreign PIDs into existing scopes.
+
+* kdbus: maybe rename "connection name" concept to something that doesn't reuse the word "name"?
+
+* PID 1 doesn't apply nspawns devices cgroup policy
+
+* rework journal-send.c to use memfds for large blobs if they are available instead of unlinked files in /tmp. Also, if we detect that the kernel knows memfds, refuse anything but sealed memfds.
+
+* maybe support a new very "soft" reboot mode, that simply kills all processes, disassembles everything, flushes /run and sysvipc, and then reexecs systemd again
+
+* man: document that corrupted journal files is nothing to act on
+
+* bus-proxy: when passing messages from kdbus, make sure we properly
+ handle the case where a large number of fds is appended that we
+ cannot pass into sendmsg() of the AF_UNIX sokcet (which only accepts
+ 253 messages)
+
+* busctl: add a pcap writer, using LINKTYPE_DBUS/231
+
+* man: maybe use the word "inspect" rather than "introspect"?
+
+* introduce machines.target to order after all nspawn instances
+
+* systemd-nspawn@.service should fail if some nspawn arg is invalid, with Type=notify
+
+* "machinectl list" should probably show columns for OS version and IP addresses
+
+* systemctl: if it fails, show log output?
+
+* maybe add "systemctl edit" that copies unit files from /usr/lib/systemd/system to /etc/systemd/system and invokes vim on them
+
+* maybe introduce AssertXYZ= similar to ConditionXYZ= that causes a unit to fail (instead of skipping it) if some condition is not true...
+
+* refcounting in sd-resolve is borked
+
+* exponential backoff in timesyncd and resolved when we cannot reach a server
+
+* journald: make use of uid-range.h to managed uid ranges to split
+ journals in.
+
+* tmpfiles: port to unquote_many_words(), similar to sysusers
+
+* unquote_many_words() should probably be used by a lot of code that
+ currently uses FOREACH_WORD and friends. For example, most conf
+ parsing callbacks should use it.
+
+* logind: make the Suspend()/Hibernate() bus calls wait for the for
+ the job to be completed. before returning, so that clients can wait
+ for "systemctl suspend" to finish to know when the suspending is
+ complete.
+
+* merge ~/.local/share and ~/.local/lib into one similar /usr/lib and /usr/share....
+
+* journald: allows specification of UID range for splitting up journal files
+
+* systemd.show_status= should probably have a mode where only failed
+ units are shown.
+
+* networkd:
+ - add LLDP client side support
+ - the DHCP lease data (such as NTP/DNS) is still made available when
+ a carrier is lost on a link. It should be removed instantly.
+ - .network setting that allows overriding of the hostname to send to the dhcp server
+ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-July/021550.html
+ - expose in the API the following bits:
+ - option 15, domain name and/or option 119, search list
+ - option 12, host name and/or option 81, fqdn
+ - option 100, 101, timezone
+ - option 123, 144, geolocation
+ - option 252, configure http proxy (PAC/wpad)
+ - networkd's dhcp server should transparently pass on the DNS and
+ NTP server list it got from user configuration and its dhcp client
+ to clients. It should also pass on its own timezone information.
+ - provide a way to define a per-network interface default metric value
+ for all routes to it. possibly a second default for DHCP routes.
+ - allow Name= to be specified repeatedly in the [Match] section. Maybe also
+ support Name=foo*|bar*|baz ?
* resolved:
- - IDN (?)
+ - put networkd events and rtnl events at a higher priority, so that
+ we always process them before we process client requests
- DNSSEC
- - LLMNR:
- - process incoming notification of conflict
- - send notifications of conflict
- - verify new RRs
- - detect conflicts
- - queries with ANY types or classes
- - collect multiple responses
- - jitter interval support
- - add SOA record to empty responses
+ - use base64 for key presentation?
+ - add display of private key types (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4034#appendix-A.1.1)?
+ - add nice formatting of DNS timestamps
+ - DNS
+ - search paths
- mDNS/DNS-SD
+ - avahi compat
- DNS-SD service registration from socket units
- - port sd-resolve to direct bus calls
- - nss module: fallback to glibc dns modules if resolved cannot be contacted
- - edns0 + dname
+ - edns0
+ - dname
- cname on PTR (?)
-* Allow multiple ExecStart= for all Type= settings, so that we can cover rescue.service nicely
-
-* the resolv.conf tmpfiles line should be covered by ENABLE_NETWORKD...
+* Ignore .busname units on classic D-Bus boots, systemd-resolved cannot be started on kdbus
+ without the active policy and should get a Wants=org.freedesktop.resolve1.busname to
+ pull-in the policy.
-* sysusers:
- - also create entries in /etc/shadow, /etc/gshadow
- - allow setting the home directory of system users
+* Allow multiple ExecStart= for all Type= settings, so that we can cover rescue.service nicely
* Add a new verb "systemctl top"
-* order OnCalendar timer units after timer-sync.target if DefaultDependencies=no so that we don't trigger them prematurely
-
-* refuse mounting on symlinks
-
* logind: allow users to kill or lock their own sessions
* add new gpt type for btrfs volumes
* support setting empty environment variables with Environment= and EnvironmentFile=
-* machined/machinectl: sort IP addresses we return by scope and protocol
-* machined: write NSS module for looking up IP addresses for machines
-
* timer units: actually add extra delays to timer units with high AccuracySec values, don't start them already when we are awake...
-* timesyncd - hookup with networkd: NTP servers from dhcp
-
* a way for container managers to turn off getty starting via $container_headless= or so...
* figure out a nice way how we can let the admin know what child/sibling unit causes cgroup membership for a specific unit
* journalctl: add the ability to look for the most recent process of a binary. journalctl /usr/bin/X11 --pid=-1 or so...
-* set NOTIFY_SOCKET also for control processes
-
* mount_cgroup_controllers(): symlinks need to get the label applied
* For timer units: add some mechanisms so that timer units that trigger immediately on boot do not have the services
they run added to the initial transaction and thus confuse Type=idle.
-* Add timeout to early-boot, and shut down the system if it is hit. Solves the laptop-in-bag problem and is useful for embedded cases
-
* Run most system services with cgroupfs read-only and procfs with a more secure mode (doesn't work, since the hidepid= option is per-pid-namespace, not per-mount)
* sd-event: generate a failure of a default event loop is executed out-of-thread
* unify dispatch table in systemctl_main() and friends
-* Automatically configure swap partition to use for hibernation by looking for largest swap partition on the root disk?
-
* rfkill,backlight: we probably should run the load tools inside of the udev rules so that the state is properly initialized by the time other software sees it
* After coming back from hibernation reset hibernation swap partition using the /dev/snapshot ioctl APIs
- kdbus mapping
- NameLost/NameAcquired obsolete
- GVariant
- - "const" properties (posted)
- path escaping
- update systemd.special(7) to mention that dbus.socket is only about the compatibility socket now
- test bloom filter generation indexes
* sd-event
- allow multiple signal handlers per signal?
+ - document chaining of signal handler for SIGCHLD and child handlers
* in the final killing spree, detect processes from the root directory, and
complain loudly if they have argv[0][0] == '@' set.
* maybe add a generator that looks for "systemd.run=" on the kernel cmdline for container usercases...
-* timedatctl, localectl: possibly make some commands work without the daemon, for chroot situations...
-
* timedatectl: print a nicer message when enabling ntp fails because ntpd/chrony are not installed
* cgtop: make cgtop useful in a container
- "systemctl mask" should find all names by which a unit is accessible
(i.e. by scanning for symlinks to it) and link them all to /dev/null
- systemctl list-unit-files should list generated files (and probably with a new state "generated" for them, or so)
- - systemctl: maybe add "systemctl add-wants" or so...
* timer units:
- timer units should get the ability to trigger when:
* properly handle loop back mounts via fstab, especially regards to fsck/passno
-* allow services with no ExecStart= but with an ExecStop=
-
-* dracut-shutdown needs to be ordered before unmounting /boot
-
* initialize the hostname from the fs label of /, if /etc/hostname does not exist?
* rename "userspace" to "core-os"
* ExecOnFailure=/usr/bin/foo
* udev:
- - remove src/udev/udev-builtin-firmware.c (CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=n)
- move to LGPL
- kill scsi_id
- add trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device device
* make sure systemd-ask-password-wall does not shutdown systemd-ask-password-console too early
-* support sd_notify() style notification when reload begins (RELOADING=1), reload is finished (READY=1), and add ReloadSignal= then to use in combination
-
-* support sd_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work (STOPPING=1)
+* add ReloadSignal= for configuring a reload signal to use
* verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
- add reduced [Link] support to .network files
- add Scope= parsing option for [Network]
- properly handle routerless dhcp leases
- - default to DHCP unicast, but make broadcast opt-in. detect devices that needs broadcast and opt-in automatically (needs kernel patch?)
- add more attribute support for SIT tunnel
- work with non-ethernet devices
- add support for more bond options
* dhcp:
- figure out how much we can increase Maximum Message Size
- export timezone information
- - FORCERENEW
- support RFC4702 (pass FQDN)
* dhcp6:
- implement reconfigure support, see 5.3., 15.11. and 22.20.
- implement information request, see 1.2. and 18.1.5.
- implement support for temporary adressess (IA_TA)
- - implement elapsed time option
- implement dhcpv6 authentication
- investigate the usefulness of Confirm messages; i.e. are there any
situations where the link changes without any loss in carrier detection
* register catalog database signature as file magic
-* zsh shell completion: <command> <verb> -<TAB> should complete options, but currently
- does not
